A place to discuss my work and anything related to it. Basically, nothing more than a writer's blog. From time to time I will post samples of my work, and then I will also post an opinion piece that I have written. With that being said, I hope that if you are visiting my blog that you enjoy what you read. Either way feel free to contact me and let me know what you think of my work thus far.
Thanks,

Sci-Fi Novel And Other Progress

Hello friends,

I am currently in the middle of working on
the second chapter of my science fiction novel of which I apologize for not
stating the name and I have a simple reason for this. In the current
state of stale ideas in this age that we're in, plagiarism seems to be
running amok throughout the entertainment circles. Of course I'm not one
to name any names but I'm sure if anyone is actually reading my blog then you
are aware to whom I am referring.

I am of course not without sin myself and
I am the last person who will be caught standing in a glass house hurling
rocks. By sin I do not mean stealing ideas from others and if anything I
have written thus far is similar in nature, then it was by no means
intentional. I will openly admit I have been inspired by many writers,
actors, and what have you that have come before my time. No, I dare not place
myself into the same category. I merely cite those terms as an example.

Moving forward with my thoughts; yes I am
in the middle of transcribing my second chapter from my spiral notebook to my
notebook computer. Recently my computer was being repaired, (thankfully
it was still under warranty) due to another malfunction; just another notch to
add to the laundry list of malfunctions. Thanks Hp, much appreciated for your
shit quality! I shall how continue to endeavor using your computer until the
day I make my breakthrough and I can afford a Macintosh once more.

Once I complete the transcription of this
second chapter however, I shall focus my attention on reading and editing a
fourth short story I have written, then proceed with the copyrighting of said
short story, and afterwards I shall do as I did with my first book and publish
this short story on Amazon.com through their Kindle Direct Publishing service.

This new short story I have written will
further the adventures of the Southern Gothic Tales Series that I completed last year. I remind you it was the first installment of course! The first installment
being comprised of three short stories or as one person a few years ago called
it, "mini-novellas" due to the fact of their length.

In the interim alongside working on my
sci-fi piece, this new short story I have completed just before my computer
broke, I have also began work on a fifth entry into the Southern Gothic Tales
Series. At the present time I only have a few pages written in my spiral
notebook, but at the moment all I can say is that it has a few characters in it
from some of my previous short stories. So yes my plate is somewhat full and I
am rather enjoying myself.

I haven't made a video for my YouTube
channel in months because I've been preoccupied with these items and as we all
know, creativity can't be rushed and those that say true creativity just
happens is deluding themselves. That's all for now I believe and I hope I
haven't bored you too terribly.

You can always check out my twitter
feed @Kronoso1979 and I believe it's the same on YouTube I'm honestly not
sure lol. I'm also on Facebook, occasionally I bother with Pinterest, and
I’m on Instagram under the Kronoso tagline. I don't get into the snapchat
thing or anything like that because that's mostly for perverts and people just
looking to be naughty.

Last but not least, don't forget to check
out my first book on Amazon.com under the title Southern Gothic Tales.
From time to time I am doing updates as I read through it myself because
I am constantly trying to perfect my work. Recently I had a friend who did a
cover for me. So the credit for the custom picture work goes out to Susan M.
Conner.
